| Crop ID | Proso Millet |
| Part | Grain |
| Reported Factor | Phytates |
| Effect | Phytates bind certain minerals, particularly multivalent cations including Ca, Mg, Fe and Zn, thus made these biologically less available. |
| Cause Toxicity | |
| Cause Allergic Reaction | |
| Reduction Method | Dehulling reduces the phytate content by 17-24%. Milling, soaking, cooking, fermentation and breadmaking can also reduce phytic acid content of foods. |
